Weather and street conditions
Use National Weather Service Tucson: monsoon safety for monsoon safety information and City of Tucson: Operation Splash for Tucson storm-response information. These agencies provide public safety guidance, not restoration estimates. Never drive through a flooded crossing or enter unsafe standing water.
For water entering your home, our first-steps guide explains what to observe safely before contacting a business.
Check the business before authorizing work
Use the Arizona Registrar of Contractors: contractor search to check a contractor by the business name or license number they give you. Match that identity to the written proposal; ask about the license classification, subcontractors, scope and insurance. A directory listing is not a guarantee of workmanship or availability.
Take our questions before hiring into the conversation, including responsibility for drying, repairs and written changes.
Insurance and documentation
Arizona DIFI: homeowners insurance explains Arizona homeowners-insurance topics and consumer help. Contact your own insurer about notice requirements, documentation and policy terms. Neither this website nor a restoration provider can establish coverage from a photograph or a general description.
Use the room-by-room documentation guide to organize safe photos, discovery times and receipts without publishing personal information.
Moisture, contamination and cleanup
EPA: mold cleanup in your home and CDC: flood preparation and safety explain cleanup precautions and situations needing qualified help. Indoor appearance does not establish that hidden materials are dry, and outdoor water may carry contamination.
Read drying and moisture checks for questions to ask about measurements and completion criteria. Browse all five practical homeowner guides in the Learning Center.
